A Change In Our Front End

I fell in love with the brand new  R & M Fiberglass Renaissance 2000 Front end kit. So after a few phone calls with Mike at Virginia Custom Coach and Karen at R & M Fiberglass (along the help of my credit card) I was the owner of a kit. This style of front end kit is made for MCI-8s, MCI-9s, 96 or 102 A, B, C, & Ds. Since we had to go to the flat sides anyway, due to the aforementioned stainless steel problem, we had to scrap our original paint scheme and come up with a new one. We were making some real headway on the design  and then this new front became available. So we integrated it into our deliberations. After we spent a ton of time, we finally came up with a new design. Below is a rather loose approximation of our new design.

The picture to the right depicts a  paint scheme closer to the one we have settled upon than any other we have seen in a photo. This photo comes from the MCI-Industries Custom Coaches web page. However, we will use different colors, different stripes/stripe arrangements and of course we have a single rear axel.  Even though our MCI  is only 40' long and 16 years old, we hope that it will bear more than just a little resemblance to the beautiful 2002 MCI Renaissance model. We hope MCI will see this  imitation that we are building for ourselves as flattery.
